R.I.P. Jean Lazure

It is with a heavy heart that I, Shaun Keay, violate the terms of the NCBL Social Media Committee’s imposed 1-year suspension of the SweatSox SweatSite. Earlier today, a confirmed report hit the newswire of the passing of NCBL Head Umpire Jean Lazure….’s tenure as NCBL Head Umpire.

Jean is stepping down after 5 years on the job to focus on managing the Mastodons, a 2018 NCBL Tier 4 expansion team consisting of over-the-hill players who aren’t yet ready to play for the Brau.

Thanks for all the hard work over the years Jean!

I, Shaun Keay, have also been given exclusive access to the NCBL’s wish-list of Head Umpire replacements:

Phillip Beauregard
Christopher Hart
Cameron Lyons
Patrick Nicholas

My vote, if I had one, is for Hart; but the league will be in good shape nomatter which direction we go.
